Someone recommended that this thread be started, to round up all the info that is known about the movie so far. This is everything I can remember right now. I'm sure there is a lot more info that can be added, and some of the accuracy might be a tad off, as I have added some of my own assumptions.

Someone recommended that this thread be started, to round up all the info that is known about the movie so far. This is everything I can remember right now. I'm sure there is a lot more info that can be added, and some of the accuracy might be a tad off, as I have added some of my own assumptions. Feel free to add any new info, and discuss the plot and scenes that we know are in the movie so far.
-Wayne Manor is being rebuilt; Bruce Wayne and Alfred are staying in a penthouse suite. Batman keeps the tumbler, his suit and equipment and a computer terminal in an underground garage.
-The Joker is the main villain. His first scene, which is also the opening scene of the movie, is a bank robbery where he and his goons wear clown masks. The goons begin taking each other out, under instructions by the Joker, in order to get larger shares of the money. It turns out that the bank is a mob bank, and the money belongs to the Falcone family. The Bank Manager (played by William Fichtner) tries to stop the thugs, but is shot by the Joker. He escapes on a stolen school bus.
-Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart) is the new District Attorney. He is seen as Gotham’s “white knight.” He is alsomdating Rachel Dawes.
-Bruce Wayne is up to his playboy millionaire antics. At one point in the movie he throws a party on his private yacht for the cast of an Opera, closing the show for the night.
-Salvatore Maroni (Eric Roberts) is the new head of the Falcone family. There are gang wars ensuing the streets of Gotham City including Maroni’s gang, a Chechen gang, and a mob lead by a man named Gambol (Michael Jai White). Joker meets with the various gang leaders at some point in the movie, demanding that they kill Batman in return for half of their stolen money. After one of the mobsters criticizes The Joker, he slams the goons head onto a pencil.
-Vigilantes, disguising themselves as Batman, their hero, patrol the streets of Gotham. They attempt to break up a confrontation between a Chechen gang and Scarecrow early on in the movie. The Chechens release attack dogs on the Vigilantes, who must be rescued by the Batman. Scarecrow tries to escape in a white van, but is also captured by Batman.
-Dent wants to stop the gang wars in Gotham and put an end to organized crime. To mount a case against Maroni he needs to bring an extradited accountant from Hong Kong named Lau (Chin Han), who has connections with Maroni, to Gotham.

Reese breaks into the applied sciences sector of Wayne Enterprises and somehow discovers Batman’s true identity. Engel announces he will reveal the identity on his evening program. Not to be out of the limelight, Joker makes a bomb threat to the TV station, causing the program to be cancelled. Reese must be escorted out of the station. Once in the SWAT vehicle, Officer Berg (Matt Shallenberger) pulls his weapon on Reese. The Joker also uses Mike Engel to broadcast an eerie television message.
-Tired of all the vigilantes running around Gotham, and wanting to find the real Batman, Joker kidnaps their leader and, after interrogating him on camera, hangs him from a flag pole outside the mayor’s office with a Joker card pinned into his chest with a knife. On the card it reads, “Will the real Batman please stand up.” Harvey Dent is making a proclamation of a crime-free 18 months in Gotham to Mayor Anthony Garcia (Nester Carbonell) when the wind blows the dead body into the window of the mayor's office. Once the police take the body down, they see that a smile has been cut into the dead man’s face, and it has been painted white, with red around the lips.
